SUMMARY:Pusch House Museum Tours - History\, Unboxed
DESCRIPTION:Oro Valley Historical Society is digitizing our entire collection—photos\, documents\, artifacts\, and more. We’re modernizing our archives to make them easier to access\, explore\, and enjoy.  As part of this effort\, we’re bringing out artifacts that are usually stored or only occasionally displayed\, giving visitors a chance to see pieces not often on view. \nWhile we focus on digitization throughout the year\, our rotating exhibits will be on pause. Displays may look a little different\, but our volunteers will be on-site to share stories\, answer questions\, and provide additional information. It’s a wonderful opportunity to explore hidden treasures and watch the museum evolve as we update our exhibits for the future.
